idfic summer

[neveralarch]

Okay, so - I have spent the last academic year under the thrall of grad school, and now I am free for the summer. Mostly. Except for three projects and a conference. Like 80% free of grad school.

And the thing is, I've spent all of this spring reading other people's fic and thinking about writing my own fic and not having time and going 'but this summer, dude, you can do it this summer.' And I've also been thinking about what kind of things I find really compelling in fic that I hardly ever write myself, because it's too embarrassing or too self-indulgent or too ooc or WHATEVER. But fanfic is supposed to be fun, right? Which means I should be able to write some of my bullet-proof kinks without feeling guilty.

So I'm declaring an idfic summer. And I always wanted to do a fanfic bingo, so I made myself a bingo card.

b_e fill	robots/cybernetics	hair pulling	extremely explicit consent	fencing AU
fistfight	arguing during sex	circus/ren faire AU	vampires or bloodplay	height difference
awkward/bad sex	anger management	any kind of fanvid	predicament bondage	clothes porn
ghosts	caregiving dom	food	M/F/M threesome	drug/alcohol use
roadtrip	sickfic	trainee/inexperienced dom	historical AU	collars

Some of these are things I write or used to write all the time, some of these are things I just want to do, and quite a few are things I love when someone else does them but I've just never tried. Also I would like to try and make a fanvid.

I figure I'll just count all of the relevant spaces as marked for each fic/fanwork - none of this one work per square stuff, I'd like to make this reasonably doable. If anyone wants to join me, that would be rad! I will even make you a card if you want (though it will be based just on what I think you like, so probably not super accurate). But either way, when I reference the idfic summer in the future, this is what I'm talking about.

Considering that I a.) like everything you write and I really should comment on your stuff more often even if my only coherent response is something like "!!!!!<3<3!!!!!!!!" and b.) like (most of) the things you got on this bingo card, I am super excited to see what you do with this.

omg GHOSTS. GHOSTS. *opens arms* THOU ART MINE KITH.

Question: by "clothes porn," do you mean where Character A is wearing clothes so fiiiiine and results in shenanigans with Character B, or do you mean where the clothes are having sex? Because I already wrote the latter because I'm a crazy.

Other Question: curious, but could you define what a "predicament bondage" situation sort of is? (Because my brain is conjuring up something like 'OH NOES CHAINED TO THE WALL IN A RAPIDLY FLOODING DUNGEON BUT OMG SO TURNED ON BY DANGER' in which case you need to go Indiana Jones on that, man, totally. Indiana Jones meets MacGyver in circus/ren faire AU with predicament bondage go go go.)

Ahaha, thank you! I'm hoping to write some fun stuff.

By clothes porn I mean much more the first scenario - it may not even involve actual sex, I may just write a drabble about how good Lucy Liu's Watson looks in heels. But, who knows, clothes having sex may also occur.

Predicament bondage is kind of complicated - it's when someone's restrained such that they have a choice between a couple of unsustainable positions. So like if someone's tied to a ceiling hook such that they can either stand uncomfortably on their toes (which they can't do for long) or they can hang their weight from their arms (which they definitely can't do for long). They're in a predicament. (Wikipedia has a page on this if the above explanation didn't make any sense.)

It's a little more pedestrian than you were expecting, but RAPIDLY FLOODING DUNGEON COULD TOTALLY ALSO WORK. I will think about this, haha.
